Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing ‘comfort level’ adapts to
•
higher volumes of sound. So after prolonged listening, what sounds ‘normal’
can actually be loud and harmful to your hearing. To guard against this, set
your volume to a safe level before your hearing adapts and leave it there.
To establish a safe volume level:
Set your volume control at a low setting.
•
Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it comfortably and clearly,
•
without distortion.
Listen for reasonable periods of time:
Prolonged exposure to sound, even at normally ‘safe’ levels, can also cause
•
hearing loss.
Be sure to use your equipment reasonably and take appropriate breaks.
•
Be sure to observe the following guidelines when using your headphones.
Listen at reasonable volumes for reasonable periods of time.
•
Be careful not to adjust the volume as your hearing adapts.
•
Do not turn up the volume so high that you can’t hear what’s around you.
•
You should use caution or temporarily discontinue use in potentially
•
hazardous situations. Do not use headphones while operating a motorized
vehicle, cycling, skateboarding, etc.; it may create a traffic hazard and is illegal
in many areas.
